The Author's POV

"Hmmm..."
Sitting crossed-legged on the ground of my room, I thought back at Donna's proposal.
'We've already asked Kevin for help, and we just need someone else to help us enroll at the Lock as an assistant professor for just a couple of months.'
If I had to be honest, that was not a bad proposal.
Not only would I be granted access to the cube, which was the Lock's special vault filled with skills and manuals, but I could also use the chance to recruit some talented people to my group.
Furthermore, since the Monolith and the Union were still under a treaty, this was the perfect chance for me to consolidate my powers within the human domain.
Not only that, but the Lock did have some of the best training facilities, so that was another plus.
"Alright..."
Standing up from the ground, I stretched my body.
"Donna said that we can start as early as by next week, so I should use this chance to break through rank."
Touching my face, I shook my head.
'I really need to break through.'
I couldn't stand the thought of still not having hair on my face.
This was especially so since I wasn't planning on going to the Lock undercover.
Although Donna did offer me to go there undercover since she knew that I disliked attention, I in fact already had an idea of who some of the spies in the Lock were.
There was no need for me to hide. Furthermore, it was going to help me save a lot of trouble more than anything else.
The place was filled with a bunch of arrogant teenagers filled with hormones.
If I decided to go there undercover, I would without a doubt be put in a scenario where they would constantly challenge me out of nowhere.
And if I went there as my regular self, Ren Dover, the number of challenges I would receive would be close to zero.
After all, no one would be dumb enough to challenge someone who was rank and beat up an orc half to death in front of the whole world.

At the same time, in another room.
"So you're saying that you won't be available for the next couple of months?"
Pacing around the room, a frown emerged on Kevin's face. At the moment, he was currently on a call with Emma.
-Yes. I will be undergoing training with my dad during that time, so I won't be able to contact you for a bit.
Unconvinced, the frown on Kevin's face deepened.
However, it eventually receded.
Knowing just how stubborn Emma could be at times, he knew that he couldn't change her mind.
"Alright, I won't try to convince you otherwise. This is your life, and it's not something I can control. I just hope that you remain safe."
-Don't worry Kevin.
Emma reassured.
-Don't forget that my dad will be with me, I won't go through any danger.
"If you say so."
Hearing her words, Kevin did feel a little bit more relieved.
She was right.
Her father was someone whose strength was around to rank. There was no way someone like him couldn't ensure her safety.
Perhaps he was overthinking.
-Alright Kevin, I have to go now. I will see you in a bit.
"See you."
Kevin bid Emma goodbye.
